# Differences with the DRF generic views # Differences with the DRF generic views
It changes the generic lifecycles of all the CRUD operations to fit within them automated caching functionality. Caching and deleting cache keys is handled by the library in a way that the cache keys have no duplicates. The generic views offered include single item CRUD and list-based CRUD.

Caching and deleting cache keys is handled by the library in a way that the cache keys have no duplicates. The generic views offered include single item CRUD and list-based CRUD.
To manage automated caching this the library replaces (and appends to) the DRF filters. These filters need a get_unique_dict method in order to avoid the duplicate cache keys problem.

### Extras ### Extras
The source code is similar to the django-rest-framework's generic classes and related objects, it should be eminently readable. A new method is added in each filter named get_unique_dict that aids in fixing the duplicate key problem.
